In some embodiments, the automated plantingsystem can includea mapping system that receives various sensor inputs and generates a map of aplanting area.A pod planting system may use the map of the planting area to deliver pods tothe plantingarea. The pod planting system may be executed automatically using the mapsgenerated bythe mapping system and/or manually by a remote operator. Each pod can includea payloadto be planted on or in the ground by the pod planting system. Pods may becustomizeddepending on the types of plants being planted, the terrain, prior plantingresults, etc.
